if necessary, you can study the rules of use in more detail to extend the service life, since violation of the conditions leads to premature damage to functional elements.

The best models in this series are considered 22.360.B and 22.360.S.
They are equipped with a milk foam height regulator. The operating instructions for the Delonghi Magnifica s coffee machine contain a detailed description of how to operate and care for the device.

User manual

Each coffee machine model has its own instructions for use, but the principles of operation are similar.

Principle of operation

The DeLonghi Magnifica Rapid coffee machine works in the same way as the Venice, Pronto or Smart models. The process is as follows:

The beans are placed in a built-in coffee maker or poured crushed into a container.
The coffee machine builds up pressure.
The required dose of coffee automatically enters the receiver and is steamed.
The drink pours from the nozzle into the cup.

The last stage - the cake is automatically poured into the waste container.

Installation and connection

Follow the instructions for the Magnifica s coffee machine to avoid repairs and malfunctions. Place the coffee machine on a level, hard surface to prevent it from accidentally overturning. Do not place the device near a sink. Any liquid that gets in can damage it.

The power cord should not come into contact with hot surfaces - stove, kettle. Leave at least 3 cm of free space on the sides and back of the appliance, as well as 15 cm above it.

The instructions for the Delonghi Magnifica coffee machine contain information about the maximum possible voltage of the electrical network. Do not violate this indicator, otherwise the unit will break.

If the plug does not fit into the outlet, do not replace it yourself. Contact the service center.

Operating modes

The instructions for the Delonghi Magnifica coffee machine contain information about the operating mode. It can be automatic or manual.

The advantage of automatic models is the ability to prepare coffee at the touch of a button (like in a cafe). In manual mode, you will have to whip up the foam using the built-in cappuccino maker.

Also, a coffee machine with automatic mode will brew a drink in the morning when you wake up or at any other time, if the cord is not unplugged from the outlet. The timer does not go off when the lights are temporarily turned off.

The automatic shutdown mode saves electricity, which is wasted when the thermoblock is constantly heated during inactivity. The coffee machine will automatically turn off if it does not operate for a specified period of time.

Safety precautions during operation

The operating instructions for the DeLonghi Magnifica coffee machine describe safety precautions. Do not touch the body during operation. Use only controls or buttons on the panel.

Connect certified accessories. A non-original or damaged cord may cause fire, electric shock or malfunction.

Do not leave the coffee maker unattended and turn it off before cleaning. First press the power button, and only then unplug the cord from the outlet.

Be careful when using a manual cappuccino maker. Do not test the steam temperature with your hand to avoid severe burns.

Do not pour boiling water into the container and do not turn on the device in the cold. Low temperatures will damage it.

Use the equipment only for the purposes described in the instructions for the DeLonghi Magnifica s coffee machine.

Cleaning and caring for your machine

Maintenance of coffee machines includes two stages:

Features of descaling a Delonghi coffee machine will depend on the type of machine:

Carob coffee maker - most often these models are not equipped with an automatic built-in cleaning system. You need to take care of this yourself. After each brewing, the horn must be rinsed; no coffee residues should remain in it. Once a month you need to clean the coffee horn from coffee oils. To remove scale, you need to use a special product that is poured into the water tank. Then you need to turn the device on and off so that the product can dissolve all the scale that has formed in the system.
Automatic - these models are equipped with built-in cleaning systems. The machine itself will signal that it needs to be cleaned. The washing principle is the same as in carob models.
Cappuccino maker - you need to monitor these models especially carefully. After each use, you need to rinse the system with water, since milk is a perishable product.

The main problem with coffee machines is scale. The operation of the device depends on what kind of water is used. For preparation, you can only use clean drinking water; mineralized and artesian water is not suitable. It is recommended to pass it through a filter.

The harder the water, the more scale it will form.

Features and Benefits

A traditional carob-type coffee maker is used to make espresso coffee and has a minimal set of functions. In such a unit, steam pressure, the amount of water in the boiler and the degree of its heating are regulated. The coffee is ground, then pressed by hand in a cone with a tamper (pestle).

The carob coffee machine works as follows:

the container is filled with water;
insert a strainer into the holder, add ground coffee using a measuring spoon and lightly compact it;
the horn is installed in the brewing head;
after turning on the coffee maker, steam enters the holder and seeps through the coffee tablet,
the finished drink falls into the cup;
The used tablet is thrown away, the horn is thoroughly washed so as not to spoil the taste of the next portion of coffee.

The strength of the drink is determined by the density of compaction of the powder in the cone , the degree of grinding of the grains and the material from which the holder is made.

With a high density of the tablet, water seeps through it for a long time, collecting a lot of coffee extract. The drink turns out to be too bitter. The same thing happens if the powder is ground too finely.

When pressed lightly, the coffee turns out watery and light. The reason for the same result may be a plastic cone: the coffee in it does not heat up as well, and even acquires a sour taste. In a stainless steel holder, the drink turns out much tastier: the steel holds heat well and does not spoil the coffee taste. Good options are brass or silumin horns.

What you need to know before you start

Before you start working with certain devices, it is necessary to identify a number of important points. The operating instructions for the DeLonghi coffee maker require compliance with the following precautions.

Due to the fact that during operation the device emits a large amount of heat, you should not place any electrical appliances or objects sensitive to high temperatures directly next to it.
It is not recommended to install the coffee maker next to water taps, as it is unacceptable for liquid to get inside the structure. You should also ensure that the air humidity in the room does not exceed normal limits.
The device should not be used in rooms where the temperature is too low. This is due to the fact that due to freezing of the water that is loaded into the device, it can be damaged and become unusable.
When placing the coffee maker in one place or another, take into account the fact that the electrical cord of the device should not be kinked, twisted, or touch sharp objects and corners.
Before connecting the device to the outlet, make sure that the voltage in the power source corresponds to what is indicated in the instructions and on the factory markings.

Video review of this coffee maker in the video below:

Results

Very compact and stylish coffee machine. It is as narrow as possible, 15 cm wide, and made of metal, which adds points to the durability and reliability of the machine.

But you should keep in mind that this is a semi-automatic carob and, when buying such a machine, you need to understand that it will not be possible to lazily drink coffee in the morning. You need to grind, load, measure, wash, etc. yourself.

If making coffee gives you no less pleasure than the coffee itself, this model is for you.

Also, user reviews indicate that a lot depends on the settings, and they are worth paying attention to - if you don’t get tasty coffee the first time, you may just need to find your own settings and try different preparation methods.

Total: recommended for very lazy gourmets for home use and for small spaces, as well as on a limited budget.

How to get started

To begin with, it is worth keeping in mind that the new device may contain traces of coffee inside. This is due to the fact that each device is tested at the factory.

Pay extreme attention to the water hardness factor, because the quality and durability of the coffee maker depends on it.

The DeLonghi coffee maker operating instructions recommend following the following sequence of actions when you start working with the device.

Connect the device to a power source with a given voltage level;
Next, you should select the working language that will be used in the future.
The next step is to fill a special container with water. When the action is completed, the vessel should be returned to its original location.
Next you need to turn on the heating mode. When the operation is completed, hot water will start flowing into the cup.
Please note that it is impossible to achieve a satisfactory result the first time. Only after 5 servings of each type of drink have been prepared will it be possible to judge the quality.
It is worth noting that when you turn on the device for the first time, prompts regarding the sequence of actions will appear on its screen.

Instructions for use

A brief procedure for working with any carob coffee maker:

Fill the boiler with water.
Form a coffee tablet.
Turn on the coffee machine.

High pressure steam will pass through the coffee tablet. Within about a minute from the moment it starts working, the machine will pour the finished drink into the cup.
Now let’s take a closer look at the most important ingredient – ground coffee. The taste and strength of the finished drink depends on it. Its grinding is:

small;
average;
large.

Experienced baristas use medium-ground coffee with 1 mm particles in carob coffee machines. This is how you get the strongest, most delicious and aromatic drink. Superfine grinding, more reminiscent of flour, is not suitable for such devices, just like coarse grinding - the coffee will turn out sour.

On a note! Grind the coffee beans immediately before loading them into the coffee machine; do not store the powder for future use, otherwise it will lose all its aroma.

How to make cappuccino and latte

The operating instructions for the DeLonghi Magnifica coffee maker provide for a series of sequential steps for preparing coffee drinks such as lattes and cappuccinos/

The first step is to secure the fitting and place the cup under the tubes from which coffee and frothed milk are served.
Next, you need to press the button that corresponds to the drink you have selected, and an indicator will appear on the control screen that will show the degree of completion of the task.
When the process is completed, the cup will be filled with frothed milk to a certain extent, after which the coffee will automatically start dispensing. This completes the operation of the device, and all you have to do is add sugar or any other flavorings.

Economical energy consumption

Thanks to the presence of a special function, it is possible to consume much less electricity. The DeLonghi EC 5 coffee maker, the instruction manual for which is included in the kit, informs about a number of features of the operation of this mode.
